Load management is prolonging careers I guess

Also insane advancements in modern medicine. In the 70’s and 80’s a torn ACL (much less an Achilles) meant your career was just over like 80%+ of the time
In the early 00’s even, an ACL was basically a death sentence, losing an entire calendar year of training and production. Shaun Livingston was a miracle when he came back in 07, and now they’re talking about Nick Chubb being the starting RB for the Browns week 1 next year.
